open late. trains will run an extra hour tonight. fans leaving the field will have service from the morgan boulevard station. riders can make connections to other lines, too. entrances at other metro stations will close at their normal times. as if fans needed another reason to support the burgundy and gold, when and if they make it into the playoffs it could mean a big boost for the local economy. officials in prince george's county says the team contributes tax revenues from the game and income tax revenues from employees at the field. local businesses are raking in the cash. lauren demarco has the story. >> reporter: each time the redskins play at home, prince george's county brings in approximately half a million dollars in direct revenue. the executive director of the county's conference and visitor's bureau says what really matters is fan attendance. >> there is a 10% admission tax on tickets told.

10:07 pm
robert griffin iii. here's one, i am not a crazy fan, but i love the way they bring such joy to the dmv. stay with fox 5 for continuing coverage. coming up in a half hour, scott smith will join us live from fed ex field with an update. and he'll join us immediately following the game for all the highlights and a recap. fans at fed ex are dealing with gusty winds tonight. gary mcgrady joins us. >> thanks a lot, maureen. i think the winds have calmed down quite a bit, which is the good news. they're not gusting like they were earlier. they were gusting up to about 40 miles per hour. we even had gusts today that were up to 50 miles per hour
10:08 pm
across the area. temperature has cooled down. 33degrees in the city. probably pretty much the same at fed ex. gaithersburg into the 20s. frederick now down at 30 degrees. most places at or below freezing. overnight tonight temperatures will drop. the winds have come down a little bit. yes, there's a windchill factor. but it's not much different than what the actual temperature is. feels like about 25 degrees or so here in washington. obviously 52 degrees in annapolis is wishful thinking. that's an error there on the computer's part. clearing skies overnight tonight will be very cold. down to about 27 degrees tonight here in town. but outside of town, out in the suburbs, overnight tonight talking about temperatures getting down into the teens. really, really cold. one of the coldest nights we've had so far this season, maureen, and it looks like this cold stuff is around to stay. let me just -- there's still a
10:09 pm
snowflake in the forecast for new year's day. we'll talk about new year's eve and day coming up. sounds good, thank you. coming up, no deal. after another day of failed negotiations on capitol hill, we are nearing the one-day mark of the fiscal cliff. we have an update on where things stand, plus our analyst, mark plotkin, weighs in. >> later, parents can breathe a sigh of relief. finally a social networking site that is kid friendly. those stories and more coming up on the news at 10:00. 
10:10 pm
10:11 pm
10:12 pm
new tonight, secretary of state hillary clinton is in a new york hospital tonight, after doctors discovered a blood clot. it stems from a concussion she suffered earlier this month. doctors found the clot during a follow-up exam. she'll remain in the hospital the next 48 hours so doctors
10:13 pm
can monitor her medication. the looming fiscal cliff, lawmakers on capitol hill today, leaders say no deal is in sight. >> happy new year. >> reporter: the house and senate back to work for a rare sunday session, trying to figure out the fiscal cliff negotiations. a lot of talk. very few solutions so far. >> our membership is as frustrated as the american people we're sworn to serve. >> none of the votes we'll be casting today have nothing to do with the deadlines we face in slightly more than 24 hours. we're here, we're ready. >> reporter: president obama sitting down for his first sunday morning talk show interview in over three years told nbc it's time for lawmakers to nail down a deal. >> we don't yet see an agreement, and now the pressure is on congress to produce.
10:14 pm
>> reporter: republicans and democrats going back and forth behind closed doors, working through the night, trying to avoid some of the most painful tax hikes and spending cuts in our nation's history. >> there's still significant distance between the two sides. but negotiations continue. >> reporter: a possible sign of progress came when vice president joe biden rushed back from delaware to the white house to work the phones and reach out to republican senator mitch mcconnell, who he's worked with on many deals over the years. >> we're willing to work with whoever, whoever can help. no single issue that remains an impossible sticking point. >> reporter: if these talks fail overnight, senate majority leader harry reid says he'll push a white house fall back bill, raising taxes only on families making over $250,000 a year, and also extend unemployment benefits for 2 million americans, that could face an up or down vote in monday's session. >> we're going to come in 11:00 a.m.
10:15 pm
tomorrow morning, and we'll have further announcements perhaps at 11:00 in the morning. i certainly hope so. >> reporter: so much at stake for your wallet. because if we go off the fiscal cliff, it will be the largest tax increase since world war ii. not to mention the fact that if there's no deal, the markets may react in a very negative way. at the white house, ed henry, fox news. let's bring in fox 5's political analyst mark plotkin for more insight. good to see you. >> good to be here. >> despite the setback, both sides are saying there will be a deal. i'm wondering, is there political theater, and if so, what does it aid? >> i think a deal will be minimal. both parties are concerned that they will look bad. right now polls show that the public holds republicans responsible. but democrats are worried, too. they control the senate and the presidency, and they feel
10:16 pm
they'll be damaged. so maybe this insecurity about their, both their political futures will make for something, a minimal, but at least something. >> president obama was on meet the press this morning, taking his argument to the american public. how effective is this, and one could say shouldn't he be talking to lawmakers directly? >> he did talk to lawmakers before. right now his representative, joe biden, was in the senate for a very long time, is trying to forge a deal with mitch mcconnell. they've had a successful partnership in the past, and harry reid, the majority leader, seems to go along with that. so maybe the outlines of a deal can be between those two principals. then again, we have john boehner, speaker of the house, has to control his own republican party. what happens if mcconnell and biden create a minimal deal and boehner can't sell it, then we're back to square one, which
10:17 pm
is failure. >> right. which boehner couldn't do with his plan b a couple of days ago. >> that's right. >> the question is, if some deal should be reached, i'm not expecting something that's overreaching, something large, is it short-term? >> very short-term. and then i'm sorry to be the dispenser of bad news, we have the whole fiscal cliff again with the fiscal reputation in terms of the borrowing maximum, the ceiling, which will come due in about a month where they have to raise the debt ceiling. you remember the president said, i'm not going to play that game anymore. unfortunately, he's going to play that game. so we'll have crisis number two, even if they solve this mini crisis today, or tomorrow. >> this white house fallback deal that senator reid is talking about pushing, if it comes to that, talk a little bit about this. >> that is the very minimal. what that is is going back to
10:18 pm
what he originally proposed. anybody who makes over $250,000, their taxes will go up. this is something that republicans before didn't agree with and the president actually raised it to $400,000. but now maybe they'll pass that, and the extension of unemployment benefits, 2 million people, lose unemployment benefits. if that should happen, they'll say, wait a second, we capitulated on that to fight for another day, because we just had to produce something. >> okay, so we're hearing from both sides, we're so far apart. deal might be reached. i want to know, and i'm sure folks out there want to know, what really is the sticking point here? you have social security, which the republicans took off the table. >> that's right. goodpoint. >> what is the sticking point now? >> i think the republicans feel that they've conceded that yes, they will tax people $250,000 or more. and so they will be on record for the first time in 20 years increasing taxes. they want something in return.
10:19 pm
what they want in return is something that hurts, and that means if they've taken social security, which you have pointed out, spending decreases, spending limitations, spending restrictions, so they can go back to their conservative people and say, look, we wanted something, we got something, even though we had to raise taxes, even for the most wealthy of people. the real problem, more than anything, we don't have contested seats. these districts are drawn, and republicans are more worried about a challenge from the right in a primary than a general election. you need more contests where people have to come to the middle. i'll be around. >> you sure will. thank you as always. president obama says he'll put his full weight behind a law to prevent gun violence. listen to what he said this
10:20 pm
morning on "meet the press." >> it is not enough to say this is too hard so we're not going to try. i intend to meet with republicans, meet with democrats, i will take to anybody. i think there are a vast majority of responsible gun owners out there who recognize you can't have a situation in which somebody with severe psychological problems is able to get the kind of high capacity weapons that he -- this individual in newtown obtained, and gun down our kids. >> the president says he will put forward a very specific proposal and would like to get through congress in the first year of his new term. the senate has approved a $60.4 billion recovery package for areas affected by superstorm sandy. the bill faces an uncertainty future in the house. >> reporter: there are a couple
10:21 pm
of reasons why the $60.4 billion aid legislation for sandy may languagish in the house. number one, the cost, and number two, the calendar. some lawmakers are uncomfortable with the costly package, with the nation's tight economic situation they might want to scale it back or include cuts elsewhere. here is one gop congressman from south carolina. >> we live in hurricane alley. it may be me next, my district after the next hurricane. we absolutely have to pay for it. it's the right thing to do. we cannot continue to borrow this much money to pay for things that we want but want to pay for out of our tax money. >> reporter: the possible holdup in the house prompted the governors of new jersey, new york and connecticut to send a letter --
10:22 pm
>> reporter: the second difficulty for the house, the calendar. they're running out of time. house gop speaker john boehner, who has signaled he does support some kind of sandy aid, has not decided whether or not to bring it up for a vote in this session of congress, which ends thursday. if they don't vote on it by then, then the bill will expire and the next congress will have to start on it all over again. just ahead, somber weekend in fairfax county, as family and friends mourn the death of a college football player killed friday night. and a horrible accident on the west coast kills at least nine people. we'll have the latest details. >> and tonight is all about the redskins. scott smith join us live with an update on tonight's game. we'll be right back.

10:47 pm
year's. probably late tomorrow night, for new year's eve, and then on new year's, it does not look like it's going to bring us a lot in the way of precipitation. and maybe nothing. maybe a sprinkle. maybe a flurry. that's about all we might get from that. future cast tomorrow morning, this is 8:00 a.m., we'll start with a few clouds out there. some sunshine. will be on the cold side, as temperatures will be in the 20s. this is tomorrow as we progress through the day, i think by late in the afternoon, we'll be cloudy to mostly cloudy. limited amounts of sunshine. you can see some snow west of i- 81. but it never really crosses over the mountains. as we get into early morning on tuesday, which is new year's day, you see this right up here. there may be a couple of flakes that come on across early in the morning. we might see a snow shower or two at best. as we progress through new year's day, it looks like most of this moisture coming in from the south and southwest should stay to the south of us.
10:48 pm
just barely to the south of us. again, we're right on that northern edge. i'm going to leave at least a chance for a light shower in. maybe a snowflake. not a lot of sunshine either. because we're going to be on the northern end of that. wednesday looks pretty good. that pushes to the south. we end up with sunshine. will stay chilly. cold tonight. 27 in town. teens in the suburbsful cold, few clouds tomorrow morning. mostly cloudy to cloudy late in the day. new year's eve tomorrow night will be dry. we'll have cloudy skies. temperatures will be falling right down into the low 40s or so, maybe right around upper 30s, low 40s for midnight. that's not too terribly bad. look how cold it stays. upper 30s to lower 40s. >> it is almost january. >> yes. typically we get a little warmup in january. hope maybe that comes around the corner. thanks, gary. making ends meet never seems to be easy. in the last few years it's been
10:49 pm
tougher for a lot of people. that means lottery sales are up. here's that story. >> reporter: in states across the nation, lottery sales were thriving in 2012. and according to the experts, it has a lot to do with the state of the economy. >> are you going to walk away with it? >> reporter: even when times are tough, lotteries rake in the dough. >> during bad times people want to have hope and dreams and living out the dreams through the lottery. >> reporter: 2012 saw sales nationwide jump 9% over 2011, which was up 7% from 2010. >> we respond by thinking of it as a fun diversion, a fun activity. a fun way to give flight to our imagination about what we might do if we won a million dollars. >> reporter: and states see it as a way to supplement lost tax revenue. >> i won. yes! >> reporter: in california, which has the nation's third highest unemployment rate, lottery sales are up 20%.
10:50 pm
>> the million dollar raffle is back. >> reporter: and rhode island gamblers dump 7% more into lotto tickets in 2012, even as the jobless rate climbed to number two. so why the trend? when we know the odds aren't in our favor? >> you're about 100 times more likely to die from a flesh eating virus. >> reporter: still, no chance of winning if you don't play, and it's that hope that keeps people coming back for more. even though some experts caution against it. >> the best thing to do is hang onto your dollar instead of buying a ticket. >> reporter: most financial advisors will tell you they don't have anything against the lottery per se. they suggest looking as it as a recreational expense, not investment strategy. still ahead, for many heading to the movies it's christmas day tradition. this year there was plenty of competition. which came out on top? we'll tell you next. >> then coming up at 11:00, redskins mania taking over the d.c. area.
